Some of us are in awe of Dan's, (orchidguy) obvious talents not only in his garden but in the kitchen too.

Dan very kindly sent me a sample of some 'curry' paste he made this year. He goes to the trouble of getting his spices from overseas far and wide. A very generous container arrived just before Christmas.

Tonight I was able to finally try it! I used it exactly as per his instructions so that I would get a good idea of just what it tasted like. I used chicken breast, onion, red and green peppers, mushrooms, green onions, coconut milk and a little chicken stock. I added Udon noodles and some finely chopped cilantro for the last couple of minutes. It was out of this world delicious!

Thanks Dan - fabulous taste!

That looks and sounds lovely. We just got back from Victoria, and had an entire leg of lamb with me that I bought there and never used, so I popped into the local safeway, bought some premade hummous, tsatsiki, pita bread, went home and made souvlaki on the BBQ. A nice light tasty meal for just the two of us after all that heavy stuff and numerous relatives over Christmas.
